The 520H Aeroturbine is essentially two 510V turbines joined horizontally by a shared alternator. The approximate weight of the 520H is 750 lbs. which includes the alternator. The 520H can be bolted or ballasted down horizontally and, like the 510V, is stackable end-to-end.  While the 510V works well in multi-directional winds, the 520H requires a dominant wind direction; for maximum efficiency, the rotational axis of the 520H must be oriented perpendicular to a location’s dominant wind direction. The building must have a special shaped roof, a pitched roof is best for the wind to rise above and flow into the turbines, like a wind ramp (see the Mercy Lakefront project roof detail). Flat roofs will not work because the wind will blow over the turbines instead of into them. The standard 520H Aeroturbine is 9 ft. tall and approximately 21 ft. long end to end.

In order to operate efficiently, Aeroturbines must be building attached and above or away from surrounding trees and other obstructions, and in an area with average wind speeds of at least 15 mph.

All Aeroturbines are designed and custom-built to fit the architecture of the building. Exact costs will depend on project location, number of turbines purchased, and the required mounting method.  The 520H Aeroturbine has an estimated cost of $20,000.  This price includes the 2 rotors, cages, all the custom mounting structures, and electronic equipment.  The cost of Aeroturbines will decrease when manufacturing is in place.

Aeroturbines are available for limited multifamily residential buildings, institutional buildings and commercial buildings in the Chicago area and on a very limited basis everywhere else.

We currently do not have an extensive dealer network in place. You would need a certified dealer in your area to take delivery of the Aeroturbine, install it and maintain it properly. We currently have dealers located in Chicago, Illinois and Oconomowoc, Wisconsin. Any projects outside a radius of 50 miles from one of our dealers will be carefully considered by the CEO. Once manufacturing is in place we will be able to service more customers with more dealerships.
